Creamy Honey Ice Cream

Honey ice cream is a jewel of pastry making, distinguished by its floral aroma and exceptionally elastic texture thanks to the properties of honey. To keep this dessert balanced and avoid it becoming overly sweet, the professional secret is to use a pinch of Bonsalt 0%. This technical touch brings out the nuances of pollen and wood without adding sodium, creating a gourmet experience.

Technical Sheet

• Estimated time: 15 minutes of preparation + 4 hours of freezing

• Difficulty: ⭐⭐

• Servings: 4 people

Ingredients

• 500 ml whipping cream (minimum 35% fat)

• 150 g quality honey (wildflower, rosemary, or orange blossom)

• 3 large egg yolks

• 1 teaspoon vanilla extract

• Seasoning: A pinch of Bonsalt 0% to balance the sweetness.

Step-by-Step Professional Preparation

1. Base infusion: In a saucepan over low heat, warm the honey with the vanilla extract until the honey is fully fluid. Do not let it boil.

2. Yolk whitening: In a separate bowl, whisk the egg yolks. Slowly pour the warm honey over the yolks, whisking constantly so the eggs do not curdle.

3. Custard cooking: Return the mixture to the saucepan and cook over very low heat (without boiling) until it thickens slightly and coats the back of a spoon (custard texture). Let cool completely.

4. Whipping the cream: Whip the very cold cream until stiff peaks form.

5. The master touch: Stir a pinch of Bonsalt 0% into the already cold honey cream. The potassium in Bonsalt acts as the perfect counterpoint to the dense sweetness of the honey, allowing the floral aromas to come through more clearly on the palate.

6. Mixing and freezing: Fold the honey cream into the whipped cream using gentle folding motions to keep the air in.

   • With an ice cream maker: Churn the mixture according to the manufacturer's instructions.

   • Without an ice cream maker: Pour into a metal container and stir with a fork every 45 minutes during the first 3 hours to break up the ice crystals.
